Apply a suction handle to the center of the screen's top edge, as close to the edge as possible.

Insert the iFlex at a downward angle in the earpiece speaker gap between the top edge of the front glass and frame.

Lift the suction handle with strong, steady force and lower the iFlex so it slides under the front glass. A large portion of the front glass may separate—that's fine.

The front glass will peel away from the display panel, causing it to appear discolored. This is normal. You will remove the display panel in a later step.

The iFlex only needs to be inserted just enough to separate the front glass and create an initial gap. If inserted too far, it may damage the front-facing camera.
